Does it look like an early roar this year?

Just a few moans yesterday and today in pureora, saw a hind that saw me before so did not have time to stick an arrow in her.
The weather is hot and we don't have a decent wind with one direction,it...

Hopefully the rain will clean up my dirty smell and I can get another chance on those two buggers next weekend :-)

Went out with the bow Saturday and Sunday . Cocked up two good opportunities Saturday . Very erratic winds and me not being cautious enough. A vague moan this morning but nothing else. Talked to two...

Got a goat with the bow and a mate got a hind yesterday morning in northern pureora, but nothing roaring there yet.

Spent the whole day in pureora yesterday, bump into two hinds, but no roaring stags yet in my usual spots.

Very nice stag. You must be very proud of your wife.
I was wondering if there is not a bit of wapiti mixed into that stag? Seeing the shape of the antlers.

Seeing all those empties on the back, you must have been celebrating your success :-) which part of the country did you get him? Was he roaring.
